RolStoppable said: Strange that a preview would be so negative. Usually gaming websites and magazines essentially make a sales pitch by sweeping problems under the rug or assuring that the developers will iron out the few mentioned issues before the game in question releases. On a sidenote, the most recent issue of the German magazine M!Games featured an editorial that called out the increased number of day 1 patches and ever-increasing shoddy practices, specifically highlighting how the Master Chief Collection is incomplete without a large day 1 update. Then they go on to give MCC a score of 86 in the same issue and AC: Unity also got away with a 90. A point well made. |
Just read my post a couple comments up and you'll see the same thing with Eurogamer. He specifically calls out games like the Crew and MCC for their horrible online component on Day one and how the games are riddled with bugs, but then the Crew gets an 8 and MCC gets a 9?
A point well made indeed.
